When FBI and Joint Terrorism Task Force agents raided
multiple activist homes in the Northwest last week, they were in search of
“anti-government or anarchist literature.”
The raids were part of a multi-state operation that
targeted activists in Portland, Olympia, and Seattle. At least three people were
served subpoenas to appear before a federal grand jury on August 2nd in
Seattle.
In addition to anarchist literature, the warrants also
authorize agents to seize flags, flag-making material, cell phones, hard
drives, address books, and black clothing.
The listing of black clothing and flags, along with comments
made by police, indicates that the FBI may ostensibly be investigating “black
bloc” tactics used during May Day protests in Seattle, which destroyed
corporate property.
If that is true, how are books and literature evidence of
criminal activity?
To answer that, we need to look at the increasing
harassment, surveillance, and prosecution of anarchists and political activists
associated with the Occupy Movement.
In some cases, such as the May Day arrests in Cleveland,
the FBI has been so desperate to arrests “anarchist terrorists” that it
supplied them with bomb-making materials and used an informant to entrap them.
The same thing happened in Chicago. (Read further: Source)
